Volume 8, Book 74, Number 283:
Narrated Muadh:
While I was a companion rider with the Prophet he said, “O Mu’adh!” I replied, “Labbaik wa
Sa’daik.” He repeated this call three times and then said, “Do you know what Allah’s Right on His
slaves is?” I replied, “No.” He said, Allah’s Right on His slaves is that they should worship Him (Alone)
and should not join partners in worship with Him.” He said, “O Mu’adh!” I replied, “Labbaik wa
Sa’daik.” He said, “Do you know what the right of (Allah’s) salves on Allah is, if they do that (worship
Him Alone and join none in His worship)? It is that He will not punish them.”
